Adam Ant - Try This For Sighs

I call round your house
I try on your phone but you cry
Leave me alone leave me alone
I like your face you dig my eyes
Come on now honey try this for sighs

And if a push comes to a shove
And we have to call it love then
Baby i'll do it
Baby i'll do it

I don't drive no rig
I don't need no car so you cry
Leave me alone leave me alone
I like your face you dig my eyes
Come on now honey try this for sighs

I don't want no lip
I can smell your lies when you cry
Leave me alone leave me alone
You like my face i dig your thighs
Scrap that honey try this for sighs

Adam Ant - Place In The Country

All i thought i wanted was a front door
All i thought i wanted was a place in the country
Now i realise i wanted so much more
Some i love but you i adore

You think you're really swinging
But you're off the beat
The moves your brains a thinking
Doesn't reach your feet
You got to get this complication out of your head
Or find another man instead

You listen very close to what the bad girls said
In all those crumby articles and in my bed
You say i'm just a stripper not afraid to strip
With my brains rattlin' my hips

You've got the kind of looks
That make a dead man stare
But when it comes to working honey
You ain't there
I try to tell you nicely but the screaming starts
You're playing ping pong with my heart

Adam Ant - Something Girls

Every girl is a something girl
Every girl is a something girl
Every girl is a something girl
She's got something

Every girl is a something girl
Every girl has a somehing smile
Every girl is a something girl
For a while

If i had three wishes i know mine
I would not ask the stars to shine
I wouldn't ask for gems or pearls
I'd ask for the something girls

Every girl is a something girl
From the whites of her eyes
To the tip of a curl
Every girl sends a something boy
With that something

When this old world won't treat you right
You're not feeling yourself tonight
Think of someone you can do
Relax and let that something through
Every girl is a something girl
She's got she's got something

Adam Ant - Los Rancheros

A few dollars more
They'll hang me high
But still me spirit
Will survive

There's money over there
But not for long
Soon my worries
Will be gone

Rancheros (clint)
Rancheros (eastwood)
Rancheros (clint)
Rancheros

And there's a bullet with my name on it

Times-a-coming
When a new breed say
Welcome tomorrow
Instead of yesterday

My times-a-coming
When those despised
Take shelter in the power
Of my kiowa eyes

Adam Ant - Made Of Money

Adam ant/marco pirroni

You think that i'm amde of money
You've got something coming honey
This ain't no land of milk and honey
My accountant thinks that's funny

Instead of trying to use your brains
You sit round and suck my veins
Your kind of rat belongs in drains
You're gonna get around

You like all those big fancy cars
Trendy people and their wine bars
But your lying will leave its scars
Get around, get on your horse

You think that i'm made of reddies
That makes me choke on my shreddies
I may smile and act so sunny
But this boy is not your dummy

Marriages are made in heaven
So what the hell happened to mine?

Adam Ant - Desperate But Not Serious

If i ask you difficult questions
If i make improper suggestions
Would you find that a risk to your health
Would you put me up on the bookself
With the books and the plants?

Desperate but not serious
Your kisses drive me delirious

If i were kind and adoring
How would that be?
Very boring
Mister pressman with your penknife
Always asking about my sex life
And who with and how many times?

Desperate but not serious
Your kisses drive me delirious

All the advice seemed so unkind
"if you don't stop, you will go blind!"
Tell you it's none of their business
Then console you with a big kiss
On the lips and on the back of your neck

Desperate but not serious...

Adam Ant - Friend Or Foe

Take it up or leave it
I'm not gonna change a bit
If it means heartache
Then leave it out for your sake
I tried and i try tried
To take care of my insides
Nobody's perfect so leave me if you object

I want those who get to know me
To become admirers or my enemies....

When you're a pirouetting, highkicking
Thighslapping cruiser
When you're a hipgrinding spellbinding
Clean cut seducer
You have to be careful so people take note
I take it serious, but i still like a joke

I want those who get to know me
To become admirers or my enemies

Keep your philosophy
It doesn't apply to me
If it means heartache
Then leave it out for your sake
I tried and i try tried
But still you say that i lied
Nobody's perfect so leave me if you object

Adam Ant - Hello, I Love You

Hello, i love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, i love you
Let me jump in your game
Hello, i love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, i love you
Let me jump in your game

She's walking down the street
Blind to every eye she meets
Do you think you'll be the guy
To make the queen of the angels sigh?

Hello, i love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, i love you
Let me jump in your game
Hello, i love you
Won't you tell me your name?
Hello, i love you
Let me jump in your game

She holds her head so high
Like a statue in the sky
Her arms are wicked, and her legs are long
When she moves my brain screams out this song

Sidewalk crouches at her feet
Like a dog that begs for something sweet
Do you hope to make her see, you fool?
Do you hope to pluck this dusky jewel?

Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello, hello
I want you
Hello
I need my baby
Hello, hello, hello, hello

Adam Ant - Crackpot History And The Right To Lie

People come people go, how long i'll stay i just don't know
When showbiz is a dirty word, i hope my time will come

Crackpot history and the right to lie

People love people hate, for my downfall they just can't wait
When showbiz is a dirty word, i hope my time will come

Crackpot history and the right to lie

I wish that everyone could see a show by liza minnelli
Such a marvellous lady with talent by the ton

Crackpot history and the right to lie

People lie people hurt, like to read their sunday dirt
So every jeckyll needs a hyde to blame the business on

Crackpot history and the right to lie

Every rebel that i've met say they're going to die and yet
I see them now and they ain't dead yet, and pushing forty one

Crackpot history and the right to lie

Pumping is a splendid gift, i hope you will catch my drift
Some like pumping in the lift, just like the scottish tongs

Crackpot history and the right to lie

There is nothing like the sound of a nicely laundered pound
Trying to collect around forty million

Crackpot history and the right to lie

Adam Ant - Cajun Twisters

Get on your backstep where you belong
Leave your shirt and tie undone
Cajun twister all night long

You fight so hard to get your name
What big eyes you got grandma
On every tongue in every brain
What big eyes you got grandma
How in the hell can you complain
What big eyes you got grandma
Privacy's gone down the drain

Get on your backstep where you belong
Leave your shirt and tie undone
Cajun twister all night long
Pay attention

You fight so hard to get your name
What big ears you got grandma
On every tongue in every brain
What big ears you got grandma
How in the hell can you complain
What big ears you got grandma
Privacy's gone down the drain

You fight so hard to get your name
What a big mouth you got grandma
On every tongue in every brain
What a big mouth you got grandma
How in the hell can you complain
What a big mouth you got grandma
Privacy's gone down the drain

Get on your backstep....

You fight so hard to get your name
Please don't eat my leg grandma
On every tongue in every brain
Please don't eat my leg grandma
How in the hell can you complain
What a bore you popstars are
Privacy's gone down the drain

Adam Ant - Zerox

Lock up your brain
Because i'm here again
I'm never bored to steal your chords
Ooh-ooh zerox machine
Ooh-ooh zerox machine

Give me a line
Or a middle eight
I've got the best so i want the rest
Ooh-ooh zerox machine
Ooh-ooh zerox machine

Lets get together before its too late
Collect up the ideas, duplicate
Filling up the forms, send them off tonight
And you'll be the owner of the copyright
Of the copyright, of the copyright

Time of the essence get your ears to the
Ground
However else can the hits be found?

I may look happy, healthy and clean
A dark brown c voice and suit pristine
But behind the smile there is a zerox
Machine

I'm a zerox machine

Adam Ant - Tabletalk

Don't like your stare
Don't like the arm in the air
Your style is so brash
And that silly moustache

It was, tabletalk

The evil i see
Sends bad vibrations through me
And oh what a square
With your diagonal hair

It was, tabletalk

L said to gilly
'how do you do tabletalk?'
'how do you do tabletalk?'
And this is what she said;
'love love love love...'

The love of his life
Too close to become a wife
And the death of this girl
Came close to saving the world

From his tabletalk

Adam Ant - The Idea

I went to the zoo
To look at the animals
The first thing i saw
Was a wallfull of handclaps
Some wearing green hats
And all sucking chocky bars
So i went and looked at
The three horned chameleon

The idea

He walked up and down
Just trying to get close to me
A split little hand
Scratching at the glass
I looked at the snakes
And i looked at the crocodiles
You'd better
Show me the man
Who made all of this

The idea

I could be religious if ...
You didn't have to kneel down
I could be religious if ...
A god would say "hello"
I could be religious if ...
An angel touched my shoulder
I could be religious if ...
They set the hymns to disco
(like this)

Holy holy holy
Lord god almighty
God in three persons
Beloved trinity

Holy holy holy
All the saints adore thee
Christ in three persons
Belovedtrinity

The idea

Adam Ant - Whip In My Valise

When i met you you were just sixteen
Pulling the wings off flies
When an old lady got hit by a truck
I saw the wicked gleam in your eyes
Your sadistic suits my masochistic
And theres a whip in may valise on yeah

Who taught you to torture?
Who taught ya?
Who taught ya?
Who taught ya?
Who taught ya?

Describe the special punishment room
Over my garage, theres a
Whipping post, a vertical beam
You have to be in charge
I payed a packet
For a new straight jacket
And theres a whip in my valise oh yeah

You put my head into the stocks
And then you went to choose a cane
But hey your cat has got nine tails
You like to leave me lame
I can't thank her, my sunday spanker
There's a whip in my valise oh yeah

Who taught you to torture?
Who taught ya?

Adam Ant - Cartrouble

Have you ever had a ride in a light blue car?
Have you ever stopped to think
Who's the slave and who's the master?
Have you ever had trouble with your
Automobile?
Have you ever had to
Push push push push?

Cartrouble
You might have seen them very busy at the
Weekends licking and polishing the beep-
Beeps into
Shape and then its proudly up the m.1. m.2.
M.3.
And keep your feet off the upholstery ronnie
Cartrouble oh yeah
And remember this:-
You don't need anything after an icecream
I used to sit at home silently and wonder
Why all the preference is polishing the
Chrome
While all the mothers and the sisters and the
Babies
Sit and rot at home
Cartrouble oh yeah
And remember this
You don't need anything after an icecream
Car carcar trouble car carcar trouble ...

Adam Ant - Here Comes The Grump

Adam ant/marco pirroni

When you get a number one
The only way is down
And if you have a sticky patch
They start looking, start looking around

Listen close to what men say
Take what you want
And throw the rest away

When you get a number one
The only way is down
And if you have a sticky patch
They start looking, start looking around

In the night when things go bump
Think of me think
Here comes the grump, here comes the grump

Doctors said "adam, sex kills"
So come inside and die

Adam Ant - Digital Tenderness

Why does this feeling of togetherness
Always scare me away?
Why do the feelings that i have for you
Have to become a word ?

Don't say you "love" me-oh no
Don't ask that from me-oh no no

That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love
Is just a digital tenderness
Tenderness

Here is the start for so many broken people
All with a hard luck story
And a sad sad tale

Don't say you love me-oh no
Don't ask that from me-oh no no

That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love
Is just a digital tenderness
Tenderness

Sometimes
I need to be by myself
I need to be by your side
I need
Sometimes
I need the company of art
I ned the company of friends
I need you

And my heart is stronger
Than a four-letter-long word

Searching the eyes of so many broken
People
Whose cowardice proved much too strong
For vice
Don't say you "love" me ...
Oh no
Don't ask that from me
No no no

That alphabet you call "love"
That alphabet you call "love"

Adam Ant - Family Of Noise

A lot of people in this great big-world
Say "love everybody"
A lot of people busy busy busy busy busy
Being very modern

Chorus:
But the family of noise is here
And it's come to save everybody
The family of noise is here
And it's come to save you and me
It goes:

The family of noise is here
And it's come to save everybody
The family of noise is here
And it's come to save you and me

A lot of people in the ancient world
They loved only quiet
And then along came the machine
And a new direction

The family of noise is here
And it's come to save everybody
The family of noise is here
And it's come to save you and me
It goes:

In the morning
Last thing at night
In the darkness
Standing in the light

A lot of people in this great big world
Just searching for the "pure" sound
They're just looking to the machine
They don't listen to the noise

The family of noise is here
And it's come to save you and me

-in croydon

Adam Ant - Kick

See a nation on its knees
And its heritage dead
See a nation needing 'civilization'
Like a hole in the head

One race! today! one chant! kick

So now you're trying it on me
But i'm aware of the plan
To save the 'man' you have to kill the 'indian'
By simply shaking his hand

One race! today! one chant! kick

Adam Ant - Nine Plan Failed

After nine years in the army
They took away his brain
They tattooed "defect" on his brow
And signed him up again

He killed ten thousand germans
A hundred japanese
A family of hindus
And a lot of portugese
Nine plan failed

I could never see the point
Of showing them you're boss
When they drag you through the city streets
And naii you to a cross

They took him to the office
They strapped him to the bed
They fastened lots of pretty wires
Securely to his head
They wheeled him down the corridor
Upon a metal trolley
Now he wears big spectacles
And he sings like buddy holly
Nine plan failed

I could never see the point
Of showing them you're boss
When they drag you through the city streets
And nail you to a cross

The world declared its armistice
And took away his guns
And now he satisfies himself
On piss-weak tea and buns
On piss-weak tea and buns
Oh oh
At the disco
Rome is very pretty
And rome is very grand
But the pope lost his four fingers
When they gave this boy his hand to kiss
When they gave this boy his hand to kiss
It wasn't funny no

He wasn't very good at school
His highest grade was c
But he believed the managers
When they said:-
"you leave it all to me"
They gave him suits from saville row
The quality so fine
So now he sits in the desert wastes
Just waiting for a sign
Nine plan failed
